Tragic Hero

We paint ourselves the protagonist,
The tragic hero in this world of a stage,
Every event becomes a drama to be played,
Every word becomes a script.

How big the molehills seem
When we're within a fence.

We paint ourselves as the main hero
With perhaps just a few minor flaws
Something that can just be whined away
Something that can be changed.

How can we climb the mount
When we trip over molehills?

Like a butterfly's hanging cocoon
We build a wall to be 'round ourselves
Rather than caring for those we ought
We are a sheltered breed.

Destory that strong fence there
Tear it, that we may care.
